    I’m a little late to discovering The Property Couch podcast, but I’m so glad I found it! I’m currently trying to catch up on all the older episodes while also getting caught wanting to listen to the new ones. There is such a wealth of information to take in that I’m still trying to wrap my head around it all, but I’m absolutely loving the value and content. So much to learn!

    Ben and the Property Couch crew have been an incredible source of knowledge, guidance, and inspiration on my property journey. Their advice is practical, balanced, and easy to understand, whether you're a first-time investor or more experienced. I especially appreciate their genuine approach and commitment to educating rather than selling. The insights they share have helped me think more clearly about property, finance, and long-term wealth creation. Thanks for all the value you've provided ove... more

  • One of the most transparent and realistic property investment podcasts

    Listening widely to nearly every property, finance and investment podcast in Australia, TPC is still the one I would recommend if I could only recommend one property investment podcast. Very transparent and balanced. No need to incorporate bias and conflict of interest that is evident in other podcasts. They responsibly integrate Superannuation and property into a cohesive overall plan. Importantly they don’t misrepresent or conceal the fact that their property success is intrinsically fuelled b... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

616 | Why Chasing Yield Could Cost You - Q&A Day
Q: Will my former PPOR still qualify for negative gearing after moving out?
If the property was owned before budget night, it generally remains grandfathered; moving to rental could still allow negative gearing against other income, provided proper documentation and valuations are kept to establish the pre‑budget status and cost base for CGT purposes.
616 | Why Chasing Yield Could Cost You - Q&A Day
Q: My offset is full. Where should I put my cash before upgrading?
The guidance is to keep money in offsets tied to the highest‑interest debt and avoid paying down investment debt excessively; use offsetting to preserve cash while planning for a future home purchase, and consider converting an owner‑occupied loan to an investment loan if appropriate.
616 | Why Chasing Yield Could Cost You - Q&A Day
Q: Should we move in or keep both properties grandfathered under negative gearing changes?
The hosts propose a careful balance of lifestyle versus financial outcomes, recommending scenario modeling and ongoing reassessment every 6–12 months, considering emotional ties to a home, cashflow, and the potential tax outcomes before deciding.
Why Should I Invest When I’m Already Doing Well? | Throwback Tuesdays
Q: What is the main reason to consider extending to another house when you already have a safe job and a paid-off home?
The hosts emphasize that the reward of expanding is the potential to create a substantial passive income stream that can sustain you when you no longer work, and that a well‑formed outcome should drive the decision rather than fear or urgency.
614 | Property D-Day: The Decisions Investors Can’t Avoid – Q&A Day
Q: Mike asks about paying off a PPOR within five years while holding two investments and reducing working hours.
Model a plan that prioritizes reducing non-deductible PPOR debt, use buffers to maintain surplus as income drops, and consider a transition-to-retirement strategy with a financial planner to manage super and share considerations as part of the overall plan.
